If you let me be, I will try them. You will see.

Hiroko-san teaches us how to cook eggs in a really thin later. The eggs were later cut up into strips and put on top of our rice dish. Hiroko-san along with 13 other housewives game to JCMU to show students out how to cook.
Hiroko-san helps Taigo finish preparing the rice.
The finished product.
Some type of fish that we cut up and arranged this way.


Today I learned how to cook a traditional Japanese meal. I helped prepare tofu, a rice dish, and a soup. Hiroko-san came to JCMU along with other housewives from nearby towns to teach students how to cook. She was very kind and extremely patient with me and my roommate when we struggled with out Japanese (aka my roommate understood most of it and I just nodded along). The food was amazing and we all had fun cooking it.

In other news, I actually understood most of my Japanese language class. Who would have thought studying payed off? This evening we had a little welcome party and Japanese students from nearby universities came. It was fun getting to know people.
